Jeb Bush drops out of the Republican race for president

COLUMBIA, S.C. – Jeb Bush drops out of the Republican race for president.

It ends a bid that drew a staggering level of financial support from donors but failed to win over voters angry with Washington and leery of sending another member of the Bush family to the White House.
